MIDI GUITAR VST Setup in Live9: how to? [SOLVED]

[mothergarage]

See above and/or download a live set here

I don't have this plugin (and their homepage doesn't exist?`[edit:ah, back online])

But try to set the output of the audio channel to the input of the vst (sitting on the midi channel).

Edit: Tried and I got it to play the internal piano sound, but it doesn't seem to output midi notes...
Edit2: Okay, got it working.

wow!
first of all: thanks for the help

how did you get that "Audio" appear in the MIDI input menu????

I tried your liveset but you used the 64bit version (I use 32) and when I created another midi track there's no Audio option again

I tried to swap your 64 with another instance in 32 bit but doesn't work either .. still showing MidiGuitar64 and there's no way to change it ..

but my first question is: do I have to set up Live so that it shows that Audio thing in the MIDI input menu??
if so, mind sharing how?

gettin closer

thanks again

sorry for the 32/64 mixup. Here's the 32bit Version.

What I did was:
add an audio track set the input to my audio interface
set monitor to in
add the midiguitar to that track and open it
klick the trial button
under"output" set the instrument to none and make shure midi out is enabled
add a midi track and set its input to the audio track in the first dropdown and to the midi effect in the second drop down menu.
add a vst instrument to the midi track
done - no additional setup required I think

okidò ..

I tried what you did (which is the first thing I did also) but still doesn't work… still no Audio Option available in the MIDI ins.. not even in the session view (which I never use btw) .. as suggested by Tone that the "Audio" option appears only in session view .. again not for me

then I've opened you LiveSet (thanks for that) and strangely doesn't work there either! … at this point might be some setting I have to setup .. but I have no clue what this might be
also I can't hear my guitar on your setup .. lol

at this point I really want to make it work ahahaha

hey mother!

could you please take a pic of your MIDI prefs?

Sweetbutt.
Have you enabled the midi output section of the plugin to "v-midi" ?
You won't see it in your midi track input until you've done this.

yes! that was the one!

Thanks Vali!

but enough to see this plug is useless for me
still too rough for what I was looking for..

thanks everyone for contributing
